You Hit My Heart (Joyce and Luther) novel Chapter 968

"What's wrong?" Luther sniffed and jolted. He hurriedly stood up and walked to Mr. Ward's side.

Mr. Ward pointed to pendant.

the thick layer of oxidation on the silver pendant had mostly gone off, revealing its original appearance.

"It looks like a dagger to me. Don't you think?" Luther asked Mr. Ward, pointing to the pendant.

"Yes, Mr. Warner is right. At Pascaylia, this was what female generals would bring around them in ancient times to defend themselves. Of course bows and arrows are the main weapons they use."

Mr. Ward reached inside the pendant with a cotton swab and gently rubbed the pendant, "Look, this area is badly worn out, but you can still see the original shape."

After that, Mr. Ward got up, found an ancient book from the top of the bookshelf, turned to a page in the middle, and pointed it out to Luther.

"Look, does it look like this dagger?"

"Yes, it's very similar. Mr. Ward you are really knowledgeable. You know it at a glance."

Luther praised, "Could it be that this is something left over from the general's house in ancient times?"

"That's not true. It looks like it's only a hundred years old, so it was not that ancient. It should be a recent reproduction of a more ancient pendant, perhaps just for some symbolic meanings."

Mr. Ward sat back at his workroom and asked again, "Mr. Warner, this pendant, I believe, is for women."

"Yes."

Luther nodded his head.

"That's right then. It can be determined that the prototype of the dagger was one used by an ancient female general. There's some kind of totem carved on it. You see."

Mr. Ward pointed to the pattern on the top of the pendant, "This will be the key to the origin of this pendant."

"Can you see it?" Luther came forward and had a close look, but it was still hard to tell.

"Mr. Warner might need to wait a little while longer. I will probably need a few hours to recover the pattern with my computer, so that you can probably see the original totem."
